Its within walking distance of Windermere, but its a very steep hill. Fabulous though. Wasdale area is my favourite part of the lakes. Going over Wrynos Pass and Hardknott as well. Karen |

I believe visitors can go into the mine but there is also a shop. |

I thought the same, Ruth. Skipton is a lovely market town but a couple of hours drive from the lakes depending on the traffic. And of course .a different county. (unless there is a little village named Skipton in Cumbria that I'm unaware of) |

Shaun, that's a lovely drive over that way. Go north from Skipton on the B roads thru the Dales. It's heaven.

Still waiting on that green card, Ron.
